BMW R-Series description

1966 BMW R27, 250cc single, VIN# 380737 (VIN, engine, and ID tag all match), mileage 26,890,  and it's in excellent original condition. The bike was first sold in early 1967 and it has a clear 1967 Florida title. Reason for selling:  making room in my collection for some new additions. You can see my other auction item, a 1957 Triumph TRW.

The bike's history as it was told to me when I purchased it:
 I'm the 3rd owner.  The bike's 1st owner traded it in at Bob's BMW in Jessup, Maryland in 2003. The 2nd owner purchased the bike from Bob's BMW on 11/19/03.  The bike comes with the bill of sale from Bob's BMW which states the bike was serviced, was running great, and had 26,890 miles on it at time.  It also shows that the bike was shipped to the 2nd owner in Miami, FL at the time of the sale.  The 2nd owner kept it on display and never rode it. When I purchased it, it still showed 26,890 miles and I also placed it in my collection without starting it. 

Please note the German porcelain Badge/Emblem that the original owner placed on the gas tank. It was interpreted for me as,  "German Maritime Search and Rescue Service". 

This is a no reserve auction so please look at all the pictures and ask any questions before you bid. The bike is available for showing by appointment before the auction ends.

Buyer is responsible for all shipping arrangements and costs. The bike is sold as-is with no warranty offered or implied. A $500 non refundable PayPal deposit is due within 48 hours from the end of the auction and full payment is due within 7 days from the end of the auction.

Survey Says Harley-Davidson and BMW Motorcycles Less Reliable Than Japanese – But Owners Don’t Care

Tue, 26 Mar 2013

A new survey conducted by the Consumer Reports National Research Center finds BMW and Harley-Davidson  owners are much more likely to report major problems with their motorcycles than owners of Honda, Kawasaki and Yamaha motorcycles. The survey, which will appear on the April 2013 issue of Consumer Reports, says one in three BMW owners reported experiencing a major problem with their bikes in the last four years. Harley-Davidson owners were slightly better, with one in four reporting serious issues.

New: BMW System 6 Evo helmet

Fri, 12 Apr 2013

BMW has released the new System 6 Evo flip-front helmet.  It retains the clean lines of the System 6, while increasing levels of comfort and practicality with a more scratch-resistant internal sun visor, a more robust visor mechanism designed to make operation with gloved hands easier, improved ventilation control on the chin, and a revised spoiler for better aerodynamics. BMW says it has a unique chin bar pivot which reduces the size of the helmet when the chin bar is upright. Weighing in at 1.57kg, the ECE 22-05 homologated Evo is a quiet lid, with noise levels registering at 84-86 dBA at 62 mph. The helmet comes ready for installation of the BMW Communication system, offering a Bluetooth connection to the BMW Navigator IV sat-nav, music players, mobile phones and other BMW helmets.
